The Local Poet Laureate

Softly spoken and humble in her own quiet way
The local poet laureate with words likes to play
Her metre is perfect her rhyme in the right place
One might say of her she is one of a rare race
Of wordsmiths since good rhyming poets now seem few
Though to this you might say tell us something that is new
As well as writing of people and life she's a fine Nature poet
A woman well worthy of literary note
Married in her mid forties with an adult son and daughter through her brown hair some gray
The number one poet in the region today
In the past year her fans in numbers have grown
As a very fine poet she is now widely known
She writes just for the love of it not wealth and renown
The number one poet of the cultural town.
